Hope so... we need all the help we can get.
Sort of scary that Dan put him in at the beginning of the Okl drills, but Albert held up. Let's hope he can hold up the rest of the season.

No player on the Miami Dolphins was aware the team would do the "Oklahoma drill" in Wednesday’s practice, which was the first under interim head coach Dan Campbell.
So when players were suddenly called to gather in the middle of the field, eight-year veteran left tackle Branden Albert found himself in an interesting spot.
The Dolphins need Branden Albert back in the lineup.
Albert was closest to the start of the drill. Despite missing the past two games with a hamstring injury, the gritty veteran stepped up and took the first rep of the “Oklahoma drill” in front of his new coach and teammates.
“I’m a little bit too old to do the Oklahoma [drill],” Albert joked after Wednesday’s practice. “But it was a lot of good energy out there and it’s what we needed right now.”
Albert’s practice decision was a strong indication that he will be ready to return after the bye week when the Dolphins (1-3) travel to play the Tennessee Titans (1-2).
